Respite by the River

We are sad to announce that the 2020 season of Respite by the River is cancelled.

The San Joaquin River Parkway & Conservation Trust is committed to protecting not only our Parkway supporters but our staff and volunteers as well. It is for these reasons along with guidance from the CDC and California Department of Public Health's guidelines to prevent the spread of disease that we have come to this decision.

We'll look forward to coming back together for the 2021 season. Until then we encourage everyone to be diligent in taking preventative measures to shorten the timeframe of COVID-19's impact.
